Chapter 324: Is Jing'er Okay?
Originally, this matter was not authentic enough for the Huns, if it was not discovered, it was actually easy to say, but it was discovered, and this discovery was made to pay the price.
But there is a troublesome thing that the identity of the leader of this caravan is not so simple, he is the youngest brother of the Xiongnu clan, although he is also a gentleman, but he also has royal relations.
The leader was killed, the Xiongnu suffered heavy losses, the Khan and the Yan clan agreed that they could not give up, and the generals below also agreed.
The grassland respects the strong, they were defeated by the Southern Qing Dynasty before, but they are too weak, but after recuperating for so many years, who is strong and who is weak has not yet been decided, and they must fight one by one.
Since the last war, the Xiongnu have been dormant for many years, carefully raising soldiers, this war, sooner or later, will eventually come. Before the imperial court could react, the Xiongnu sent people to create trouble on the border, robbed grain, grass and women, killed all the remaining men and children, and burned down the village.
The Frontier Soldiers had already finished their operations before they arrived, and by the time the zombies arrived, all they could see was chaos.
Once or twice may be said to be the actions of the homeless, but there are many times, because this kind of law and behavior seems familiar, and everyone has only one reaction, that is, the Huns.
The Huns were already like this, and the imperial court naturally could not give up easily, so that the border soldiers stepped up patrols, and if they encountered the Huns' homeless people or robbers, they would be killed.
Although some officials felt that this order was a little inappropriate, in the current environment, everyone agreed, and this was a naked provocation that must be met.
The situation on the border is becoming more and more tense, and the former garrison asks His Majesty to send the right people to the border to organize military affairs and prepare for the upcoming big war.
His Majesty agreed, and the Prince Regent agreed, so that no one in the court disagreed with this decision.
In normal times, even if you are not used to seeing what the regent does, you will unite on such major issues of right and wrong, otherwise even if you are cleaned up, it will be your own fault.
The honor of the family and the country is based on personal grievances, which is deeply remembered in everyone's heart.
The little emperor didn't know much about military affairs, and he remembered the most famous ones for the generals in the court, so he instructed Xuanyuan Zichen about this matter, and Xuanyuan Zichen naturally took it over.
At the same time, the household department, the military department, the engineering department, etc., were prepared, the soldiers and horses had not yet traveled, and the grain and grass arrived first, and the preliminary work must be arranged, so that the soldiers can fight without distraction.
This war against the Xiongnu is related to the honor of the country and the decline of the nation, and there is only victory and no defeat.
It is precisely because of the solemnity of this matter that this candidate should pay special attention.
When she came back from the next dynasty, Shen Liuyue prepared a meal by herself, but found that Xuanyuan Zichen was a little worried.
"Ah Chen, let's talk about what is going on after dinner."
Xuanyuan Zichen put aside the worries in his heart for the time being, and accompanied Shen Liuyue to eat.
When the meal was finished and the tea was consumed, I heard about it.
"The leader of the caravan is so ......"
The younger brother of the Xiongnu clan, this is equivalent to a relative of the emperor, but with such an identity, he still needs to perform such a task, and the Xiongnu is indeed powerful.
Shen Liuyue thought of something very important: "Did those officials embarrass you?"
"Don't worry, no. The Huns are now hoarding soldiers and horses, and there is a war in itself, sooner or later, it will eventually come, and this is just a reason, a reason that allows them to attack openly. ”
If the official dares to question this matter, it is nothing more than stepping on the royal face to the ground, kidnapping the regent princess, although death still cannot be remedied, beheading the public is an iron law that should be there.
Moreover, those caravans came to the capital with their own bad intentions, and no one knew what news they would take with them if they hadn't found out earlier.
Hearing this, Shen Liuyue breathed a sigh of relief slightly: "That's good, but does this candidate have any requirements?"
Although he was a little puzzled as to why Shen Liuyue asked this question, Xuanyuan Zichen still answered it carefully.
"Requirements? This is only a candidate for military reorganization, not a candidate for the ultimate commander of the war. If you are a candidate, it doesn't matter how old you are, you have killed people on the battlefield, and you can have merits. ”
The magnitude of this war is self-evident, so the final chief generals and lieutenants must be selected from among the nobles who have been famous for a long time.
Up to now, King Ping, Song Guogong, Wei Guogong, Qingyang Marquis and other long-established generals are all in His Majesty's consideration.
Hearing this, Shen Liuyue's heart moved: "If it's just like this, do you think Jing'er can?" Let's search for books
"Jing'er?" Xuanyuan Zichen finally remembered that this was his brother-in-law who was in the army.
"After Jing'er joined the army, there was very little news. Some time ago, news just came that he said that because of his meritorious service on the battlefield, he was promoted to a thousand households, and he was also quite valued by the general in peacetime, and was ordered to carry out military rectification. ”
Speaking of Shen Jing's news, Shen Liuyue felt both comforted and distressed, if it wasn't for such a big thing in the house, it was too reproachful for his younger brother to stay in the capital, how could he go to such a dangerous place?
In the past and present life, the people she wants to protect are working hard with their own strength, although the ending of the previous life has been reversed, but since this is her brother's decision, then she respects his choice.
Xuanyuan Zichen then remembered that there was indeed news about Shen Jing sent over a few days ago, but after he confirmed that there was nothing miserable, he handed it over to Shen Liuyue, but he didn't expect this brother-in-law to be so good.
"It's okay, I'll send someone to investigate, if the matter is true, it's okay for him to go to the border to take charge of this matter, and when the Hun War is over, relying on his merits, he will also seal something."
In this way, Shen Liuyue will rest assured.
Although Shen Liuyue never nagged in front of him about this kind of thing, and never let him participate in this kind of thing, he still knew Shen Liuyue's worries, and as her husband, he should handle it properly.
"If that's the case, then I'll be relieved, and my mother and grandfather will also be at ease under the Nine Springs."
Mu Wangfu has been taken back by the imperial court, but that place is where Shen Liuyue lived, and it is also a place that proves that his grandfather once honored.
If one day the younger brother has enough credit and gets Mu Wangfu back, it will definitely be a good thing.
Holding Shen Liuyue's shoulders and looking at her tearful eyes, Xuanyuan Zichen soothed her emotions: "Yes, although Jing'er is a little younger, this kind of thing is not something like this before, so you can rest assured."
There are also many military generals who became famous at a young age in the imperial court, and now those who can be crowned marquis, in addition to the relationship between the family, basically rely on their own efforts to earn real merits on the battlefield.
"Tomorrow, I will enter the palace and tell Your Majesty about this matter, it just so happens that Jing'er and Your Majesty were also classmates and friends before, and the relationship is also very good, and then let Jing'er come back, there are some things I have to advise."
Even if it is a military rectification, leading the team to be responsible for this matter and being responsible for this matter in the military camp are fundamentally different things, and some of them are personal contacts or strong suppression, Xuanyuan Zichen has to explain it in detail with Jing'er.
"Well, I haven't seen him for a long time since he left, and it will be a while when he comes back."
Now there is only one person who is connected to his bloodline, and Shen Liuyue cherishes it very much.
"Jing'er is a smart child, he knows how to behave, you don't have to worry too much, the child is older, some things can be solved by him."
Although the two have not yet had children, in Shen Liuyue's opinion, it must be an interesting thing for the two to have children in the future.
"You say that educating children is so reasonable, so it seems that if the two of us have children in the future, please leave it to you."
In the past and present life, the matter of the child is always a sore spot for Shen Liuyue, but if this child is with Xuanyuan Zichen, then she is willing.
As long as he thought of having a child similar to himself or Yue'er, Xuanyuan Zichen only felt that his heart was soft and became a puddle of water, and the whole person softened: "If you really have a child in the future, you will naturally leave it to me to teach, giving birth to a child itself is a painful thing, where can you work hard."
The two of them looked forward to the day when they had children in the future, and they felt extremely happy.
Early the next morning, Xuanyuan Zichen entered the palace and explained the matter to the little emperor.
"The imperial aunt brought it up?" The little emperor was a little surprised, this matter was full of danger, and the imperial aunt also knew about Shen Jing's cherishment.
Xuanyuan Zichen bowed: "If you really want to protect a person, you don't want to put him under your wings, but let him learn to face it independently." This truth is also like that of Wechen to you. ”
In fact, after teaching the little emperor for so long, Xuanyuan Zichen rarely had such a warm time, but sometimes his emotions were sudden, and he didn't mind saying more.
"Your Majesty, you ascended the throne by accident, although you haven't learned how to be a Ming Jun before, but it doesn't matter, you are still young, Huigen is good, it is okay to be a good emperor."
If the little emperor's roots were already broken, then Xuanyuan Zichen would never agree to let the little emperor ascend to the throne, even if the first emperor only had one heir left.
The great cause of the family and the country is too heavy. Seeing if this person can afford it, Xuanyuan Zichen, as an overseer, also feels very heavy.
The little emperor nodded solemnly, his bright eyes filled with admiration for Xuanyuan Zichen: "I...... I will definitely study carefully and will definitely not disappoint Uncle Huang's expectations. ”
"As for Shen Jing, I know him, and with his current position in Qianhu, it is okay to take on this task."
In the end, the little emperor also agreed, and with Xuanyuan Zichen's persuasion, the displeasure that had accumulated in the little emperor's heart before was swept away, allowing him to deal with the next things with peace of mind.
